False negative: No EOL sw found, even when scanning outdated mongo or alpine docker image #569

Description

@drwetter

What happened:

I scanned a directory with outdated components and it looks like xeol didn't find any thing. Then I did a litmus check and it was the same

Image

Also on another machine (Kali Linux, binary copied thereto) it didn't work. Also not as root. Same output. Also on my mac when I scanned the directory I got a similar zero output

Image

What you expected to happen:

To find vulnerable components or at least display "parsing image" or the like which I didn't spot in any case.

Manually I identified several spring libs version 3.0.3 and struts 1.2 which should be find.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Do the litmus check.

Anything else we need to know?:

Environment:

  • Output of xeol version:
  • OS (e.g: cat /etc/os-release or similar):

See above.
